most perfect condiment vessel
As I mentioned long ago, the foodsluts brought me the best present possible from New Zealand. Wherever you go in NZ, ketchup tends to be on the table along with the salt and pepper, but in the most adorable tomato-shaped plastic bottle imaginable. I coveted them. I looked and looked but I could not find one to bring home with me from my trip. And then littlelee & spleen came home from their trip and presented me with my very own wee plastic tomato squirt bottle. Yay! What better gift could a girl ask for?
You were born too late. The tomato shape ketchup containers were very big in the '50s. I don't remember what they did with the mustard.
